creation of Excel Simulator

Dear all,

I would like to use the function embedded in the Sawtooth Simulator to create a simulator as an excel file.  

I have an attribute which is numerial and defines performance of a product. I have four levels. Now, I know that I can choose each level and see what happens to the shares of preference. e.g. the levels are, 100, 200, 300, 400.

Is it possible to create the simulator in a way that I can enter, say 250 and then see what happens?

Thanks and best regards

Yes, if you let the simulator know that your variable is continuous, it will export an Excel file that does the interpolation for you.

Cool, thank you very much! And with price I could click on continuous AND price in the settings, correct? Is there maybe a manual for creating the excel simulator? I do not understand how to handle the segmentation variables. At the front page it says "Segmentation variables (enter # or 0)" but I don't know what do do...
